Canada Place Dental

What Canada Place Dental does

Canada Place Dental is a single-location, general dental practice based in downtown Edmonton, Alberta, founded in 1988 by Dr. Marc Coulombe and now operated alongside Dr. Markian Kolonsky. The clinic delivers comprehensive family-oriented dental care including preventive hygiene, restorative services, same-day CEREC crowns, inlays and onlays, oral surgery, children's dentistry, dentures, dental appliances, cosmetic services (teeth whitening, porcelain veneers, bonding, implants), Invisalign clear aligners, dental sedation, sleep apnea appliances, and TMJ treatment. Patients are served in English, French, Spanish, and Arabic.

Underlying operations are supported by an advanced clinical technology stack: CEREC chairside ceramic fabrication for single-visit restorations, iTero 3D intraoral scanning, cone beam CT (CBCT) and panoramic and digital X-ray imaging, soft-tissue dental lasers, fully paperless digital workflows, and Videa Health AI-assisted diagnostics. The practice operates within the dentalcorp dental service organization network, using Dentalcorp Health Services as its Information Manager and C.W.A. Young Professional Corporation as corporate custodian for patient health information.

Revenue is generated through fee-for-service billings for clinical procedures, supplemented by direct electronic submission of insurance claims (EDI) on behalf of patients, and acceptance of the government-administered Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP). Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer from a single physical clinic at 9828 101A Avenue in downtown Edmonton, with patient acquisition driven by a content-marketing website, an educational blog, Google Ads remarketing, Facebook advertising, and the hellodent online booking platform. The clinic holds no patents or awards and reports a 4.9-star Google review rating.
